Introduction
Under normal circumstances, women going through menopause do not experience fever. Body temperature during menopause remains within the normal range. If an increase in body temperature occurs, it may be due to chilling or other factors. Although symptoms such as night sweats, fatigue, and subjective feelings of internal heat may appear during menopause, the actual body temperature typically remains normal.

The body temperature during menopause remains within the normal range. If an increase in body temperature occurs, it may be due to chilling or other external factors. During menopause, symptoms such as night sweats, fatigue, and internal heat may appear, but body temperature typically stays normal. These symptoms are mainly caused by the decline in estrogen and progesterone levels during menopause. If a fever does occur, it's important to drink plenty of warm water, stay warm, and avoid anxiety.
Menopause primarily refers to the stage when women transition from their reproductive years to the end of fertility, mainly caused by declining ovarian function. Additionally, as people age, their immune resistance significantly decreases, making them more susceptible to illness and fever. If fever symptoms occur, a blood test should be conducted at a hospital, and antipyretic medications should be used as early as possible under a doctor’s guidance.
